XF 1.5 Impact of removing Facebook integration?

[Myke623]

What is the impact of removing Facebook integration from my site? Specifically, I'm referring to the login integration (and not the 'like' functionality).

For example, if users signed-up using this feature and its subsequently removed, will their logins be affected? If so, is there a way to determine which users signed up using this feature? I couldn't find anything in the Advanced Search.

Thanks.

If you remove it, any users that used it to sign up, won't be able to login unless they do a lost password request.

There isn't really a UI way to see stats on usage. To get details, you'd need to see the xf_user_external_auth table to see how many people have a "facebook" provider. Note that it is possible that some of the users already have another method of logging in (including a password), though that would likely be very uncommon.

When I look at that table there's no names in the provider column, just codes. How can we tell which is facebook?

If you’re using PhpMyAdmin it is probably showing you an encoded binary value.

Try this query:

SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM xf_user_external_auth
WHERE provider = 'facebook'

Same query but the table name is xf_user_connected_account instead of xf_user_external_auth
